I hope they go well
Are you having a massive piss up the night before?

Thank you.
What, tonight?
No, just tomorrow night. Me and my friends have been having massive piss ups every night for the past week and have to get up early tomorrow for results, so we're giving tonight a miss.

I made a point of being horrifically hungover
when I collected any exam results. In fact, if it was possible I tried to be drunk.

I remember treking about 4 miles across brighton to get my A-Level results, I was a deathly pale colour and they wouldn't give me the results at first as they said I had a library fine outstanding, then after that got sorted they couldn't find the results of two of my exams. I was shaking by the time I actually got the bloody results.

Was it worth it?
I'm trying not to stress out, because its not like I can do anything about it now.

You going to uni?
If so, make sure your mobile is fully-charged, fully credited and all that fancyness.
Clearing waits for nobody.
I hope you'll be fine, but just warning you :P

Ah, good point though.
I shall put the number in my phone. Hopefully, I'll be off to Manchester.

Best Uni in the world

Oh yeah, it was definitely worth it.
If only to see the look on my mums face when I got into the car looking physically ill and then pretended to start to cry before breaking the good news that despite her insistence that I hadn't done enough work I had done rather well.

Hahaha
That is so cruel yet so brilliant!
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:22, Reply)

I needed "A,A,B".
Opened the results, found I had "C,E,E".
The sweetest moment was when I saw the headmaster wandering over.
"I see you didn't get the grades then. I hate to say it, but I said you should've worked harder."

His face when I told him that I'd got accepted anyway, because of my "obvious enthusiasm for the subject" was priceless :D

Ahahaha!
That's beautiful.
I need AAB too, but Manchester are very strict about dropping grades. I hoping if I drop just one, they'll take me anyway because after my interview, the head of the faculty wrote to me on behalf of the head of microbiology, who interviewed me, saying how impressed they were with my enthusiasm and how much they hoped I'd pick them.

You can go and meet Enzyme while you're there

Don't be so cruel, Al.

Pfffft
He's a lovely man and I won't hear a word against him.
(Bazongaloid, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:36, Reply)

I've met him once,
And that was the time I was sick on myself.
( Cawl, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:37, Reply)

What a first impression.

(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:40, Reply)

What a cunt
He may not have liked you, but to say something like that is really out of order.
(Bazongaloid, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:33, Reply)

Yeah.
He was a prick.
And my "not working hard enough" was down to rubbish being-mental reasons.
It's ok though. At least I don't look like a perfect replica of Gerry Adams.
( Cawl, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:35, Reply)

some teachers really are cunts
I had a similar gerry adams look alike criticising me because I missed a GCSE exam. He said "I see you've managed to turn up for this one then" with a sneer. Surprisingly didn't react to me telling him to fuck off
